A Gentle Wooden Glide

I wiggled off the lamp switch and rolled toward the tall wooden bookshelf. Resting on the bottom shelf was a flat wooden bookmark shaped like an otter, lying face up with a curled leather tassel. I paused, tilting sideways to inspect the smooth lacquer. With a steady lean forward, I rolled straight onto its polished tummy. Swoosh! My weight tipped the light slat, gliding me across the glossy parquet floor like a tiny sled until it tapped against a thick art encyclopedia. The soft leather ribbon looped naturally around my side, making a cozy, snug berth. #Poucircus #pou #Otter #gnu #Logos
